I agree.

The only person really worth knowing about is Sir Ronald of Pickering.

FFS let them grow up a bit first you morons. What next, raise children as dogs if they make a barking noises? I did once catch a documentary about the subject of raising children as the opposite sex, and it was just full of shouty pushy parents enjoying the limelight.
It's practicality child abuse.”

At the risk of sounding pedantic, I wouldn't really consider that trivial. I agree that it's not good for a parent to make such decisions when their child is so young. Kids go thru phases.

People who walk their dog on one of those really long leads. I can see the value of them out in the country, where you can allow your dog to roam a bit without the risk of him running off, but on roadsides it's an accident waiting to happen as the dog could so easily bolt into the road.
Another dog one. On the estate behind us, the houses have front gardens but no fences or walls. Dog walkers seem to regard this as a licence to allow their pooches to wander onto and sh!t on the grass. That's somebody's home, you ignorant git!

BTW, I don't know who the Radfords are either!

Sorry to trivially annoy you, but I haven't the faintest idea who they are and as others have said, I get the feeling that I'd be better off not knowing.

Offensive car stickers. EG 'This car is powered by bitchdust'. What? Really? Or 'come any closer and I'll fart in your face'. WTF? In most cases I've found that the cars bearing these childish sentiments are fat, middle-aged women, and the cars are scruffy old sheds.

I've always been a touch irritated by things that are referred to as a "pair" of something, that are never in their singular form, and if they were, would be utterly useless.

For example:

A pair of pants (underwear, I'm not from the midlands ) You would never have use for just one "pant".

A pair of trousers. I've never needed just one "trouser".

A pair of scissors.

So, yeah. That.

People who find the TV series The Big Bang Theory funny, unless of course they are laughing at how dreadful it is.

When I find things in the wrong place eg a fork in the spoon compartment of the cutlery drawer.
In our fridge, the top shelf inside the door is for butter and cheese. I hate it when they are somewhere else in the fridge and I have to put them back where they 'live'

Amazon ****ing Prime 😡 Just waited in the house for TWO days (parcel meant to arrive yesterday) only to be sent an email saying it's been delayed AGAIN and 'should' arrive on Tuesday. Not the first time it's happened this year to me with their "guaranteed next day delivery" either.

I'm a bit like this, too. I do most of the cooking in our house and I have the kitchen arranged as I like it. This extends to the draining board where I place the pots (in a plastic rack) to dry. I always put the knives, forks and spoons in their own dedicated homes and the plates, bowls and pans likewise.
I can always tell when my wife has been 'rinsing a few things' because the pots are arranged any-old-how and the cutlery is all mixed up. I have to put things back as they should be before I can do anything else. I know it's a bit strange and picky, but I can't help it.
The other give-away that she's been messing is that the place resembles a swimming bath, with water on almost every surface. Aaaargh! Put me away now!

Manspreading.

Not the thing itself but people who think it's a problem. You see photos on Twitter of someone on a near empty train with his legs slightly apart, effectively harming or taking up the space of nobody. But this still apparently means it's okay for a stranger to take a picture of his crotch and send it out to millions online, undoubtedly whilst putting her handbag on the other seat so she can take a picture to show everyone how inconsiderate the man opposite her is with space.

Parents who think the tube is an extension of a children's playground. Letting them swing around the place and bumping into commuters. It was only after seeing the annoyed faces of other passengers that she hastily told her brats to sit down.

On this vein, asking a woman who has her bag on the empty seat next to her on the busy train. I asked her could she move it please so my Dad could sit down. Her answer? Buzz off. He had to stand for half an hour and so I didn't think much of that.

They'd soon whinge if the child hurt themselves.

I would have sat on the bag

Hahaha, my father commuted for 40 odd years and this was a story told many a time, he did exactly that, sat on a bag that was saving a seat

I took issue with this after seeing two kids take up space on the metro while an elderly couple had to stand and was told I was being "anti-feminist and exclusionary" in targeting "commuting mothers". Not targeting commuting mothers, just shit ones who've forgotten that the reason their darling offspring are travelling free is conditional on their not taking up a seat NEEDED by another person.

The laughing/crying face emoji that's used by people to convince others that what they've said is funnier than it actually is.

People who update their location on facebook to A&E, then give no further details. I never fall into the trap of asking what's wrong.

This way people speak on the internet, I notice the BBC are doing it on their twitter feed and it's bloomin annoying: Making a snowball and sneaking up on your parents like... and then following it up with a gif.
"Mum's waking you up in the morning be like....."

And any overused gif of someone looking slightly confused.

Facebook allowing people to react to news articles with emojis. "300 people killed in a earthquake." :,( A crying emoji just seems like an odd way of reacting to a tragedy

Not noticing that the dog has rolled in something foul at the forest until it's too late so you have to spend New Year's Eve bathing dog, drying dog, hoovering up dog hair, cleaning bathroom, cleaning the mats, sofa and car seat where said dog has rolled her stinking self. She makes me sorry I took her to her favourite place. Really sorry.

That happens in real life and I find it even more annoying; someone will say something, they'll start laughing whilst holding your gaze, expecting you to mirror their reaction. They're exhausting to be around.

I totally agree, but since a DS moderator recently considered a thread called "What Do You Hate" too similar to this thread so locked it, I now post trivial and non trivial annoyances here.

I don't know if this would be considered trivial or not but people who are too bone idle to put their supermarket trolleys back.

If it was easy enough to get them and then walk round the supermarket with them how difficult is it to put them back?

Interestingly enough it doesn't seem to happen at those places where a deposit is charged for the trolley.
